Bast, we region. We report our russian soldiers have reduced one tack to ruins. Russia paved the way for tougher measures banning what he calls the promotion of homosexuality, support states, part of moscows battle against western decadence. Ah, im fil gail. Welcome to the program. United states is impose fresh sanctions against to iranian officials, believe to be involved in the brutal cracked bound on protested against the government. The suppression of the movement sparked by the death in Police Custody of a gina massa. Mimi is said to have killed hundreds, including many children raining to health, widespread memorial demonstrations. 40 days after most a means that the savagely where shes buried. Hundreds of mourners had slogans calling for the downfall of the regime. Country Security Forces retaliated by storming misdemeanors. Home town were reported to a 5 rounds of tear gas and shot at protesters is also retaliated against western sanctions by imposing its own or blacklist or targeting European Union officials and media. Including d. W. s are Farsi Service. What the head of t w ser Farsi Service is jada zarbara and she joins me now. Welcome yelder. And what form, harper, the sanctions are against you and your staff taken well so far, and we received a message yesterday that we are with been put on the sanctioned list by the Iranian Foreign ministry. So far it is said that there will be travel bands for, for, for staff after the w, persian. And it can also, it is also possible, or at least this is a what they say that assets are, properties will be confiscated in any one. Right . And i understand that ive been threats against members of staff. You know, there has been threats, i will, i will not go onto details. But we, weve like actually, every iranian journalist working out in iran, of course, but also outside of iran is targeted by irans intelligence. And they have been threads and even in the, in the, in the last years, but now increasing and during the protests. And of course, it is a way to silence us to silence journalists from reporting on what is really happening on the ground and trying to yet to put up in the ration of the rainy and Stage Television of Iranian State propaganda. And we are not doing this and it shows what Important Role we as journalists play in here. So does it 5 and you are you still able to get to news into iran . Of course we are, you have to say, and maybe i have to, i have to explain a little bit in did old persian our website and our social media platforms have been blocked in iran for the last years. What is new . Is that instagram . What was free before the protest had started was blocked, its blocked as well. So theyre trying to avoid people avoid that iranians bring out the pictures and videos and outside, but still we receive all these pictures all these images and they receive our content on our program. Because the raines, im very used to a blocking by the government, so they are very familiar with proxy servers and how to and how to yet for truth prevent censorship. So we can, and we can see now is that since protest have started, there is a huge increase of the use of proxy service like siphoned, for instance. And there is a huge increase in our reach them. So we reached out and they are seeking for our information as well. Id like to, to ask them just on that that point. How different are these processes that we are seeing that weve been seeing for the last 40 years . Because of course, are around the country that is used to, to protest you see anything different in this latest set . You know what his dead friend is basically when it comes to the reporting. Of course, what is different is that we have a unity of people from all different layers of society. What is also different is that people, d, d dont let them, they dont let the even government intimidate them anymore. So they are trying to put pressure on, for instance, to family members of young people, of young girls being, being killed by the government. But still they speak out. So maybe in the past there was more and more fear. But now they do speak to us. They speak to us like foreign Media Outlets and like d, w, persian, and this is of course, what is a big problem for, for the government. Trying to silence people in the round, but also outside and its not working anymore. And of course, even the sanction d, w, persian is a way of intimidation and silencing, but we will of course, continue doing what were doing for the last couple of weeks and right years, of course. But in this crucial times, it we can see once again how important it actually is. With that is that yaga are but thank you sing out for others all back of the w foster service.
